Dear Ambassador Masinga, I am unsure if any American diplomat has ever been photographed in a celebratory manner with individuals deemed war criminals by the US State Department for committing ethnic cleansing, as described by Secretary Blinken in his March 2021 speech. These individuals and settlers have engaged in ethnic cleansing through extrajudicial killings, forcibly displacing over a million people, and resettling approximately a million settlers by seizing the land and property of Tigrayans in Western Tigray.
Ambassador Masinga, it is well-known that for months, the genocidal Abiy Ahmed Ali has restricted your travel to Tigray. So, how is it that he now permits you to visit Western Tigray? Is this part of his agenda? For your reference, I have attached some international reports on the war crimes and crimes against humanity these individuals committed in Western Tigray.

Global military spending reached a record $2.7 trillion in 2024, with continued rises projected for 2025 amidst ongoing conflicts. Meanwhile, spending on global health initiatives has declined significantly. What the world needs is a greater focus on saving lives, not escalating confrontation.
Peace is the best medicine.
